Featured COVID-19 Adjustments

We understand that now more than ever you need a different kind of support and we are here to help.

Check out some of the ways we have adapted to these changes quickly giving you maximum choice & control during this unfamiliar time.

In Home Care & Dometic Supports

We have increased our In Home Care & Domestic Support services to provide extra and much needed supports to both to our new and existing clients. All our supports are within government guidelines to help our most vulnerable while they are at home.

Options & Connections and Recreation & Travel

Encompass adjusted our services to provide maximum choice & control within appropriate and safe activities set by the new guidelines & laws. From remote, flexible, in home and individual supports to providing online health & well-being and participant driven online travel & entertainment sessions.

Aide driven Social Enterprises

The HUB is providing material aid for the community by an appointment only policy and The Paddock is providing vegetables to the public by an appointment only policy. This helps get assistance where it is needed most whilst preventing gatherings of large crowds by using strict social distancing guidelines, making sure everyone stays safe & secure.

Free Courses for all Australians

Want to use this time to increase your skills & knowledge?
Encompass College of Education and Training has quickly adapted its activities to be completely online and are now offering 100% FREE courses across its whole curriculum for all Australian citizens.
